Yeah. It’s really inconvenient to have to switch clips when the zombies are after you. But as long as I remember to put the bullets in one at a time before I’m on empty, it is as though no time has passed.
[hijack] That is one of the hottest sex scenes evar. I see that mental image a lot too. [/hijack]
Well, since somehow I never noticed what **Miller ** said: that the old game unlocks, I may try it. And I do have a lot of sense of history! I started with an Atari. I’m hurt.
I certainly did. 
Sadly, you can’t get it just by beating the game. You have to find a secret about halfway through the game, or there’s apparently some wacky controller code.
Occasionally, I’ll be on patrol in Paragon City, and will pop by Atlas Park to check out the new heros just off the bus. I find if I land in the middle of a bunch of Hellions, they’ll ignore me completely. I dno’t know about you, but if a hero about thirty times more powerful than me just dropped in on me, I’d run.
(a)BG2 is my most replayed game of all time. Pirates comes second. Anomen, however, is the most annoying SOB out there. Unfortunately, he’s the only choice for women.
(b)Ferret Herder, switch spouses with me. You’re an adult gamer who likes ferrets. I’m an adult gamer who likes ferrets. Now to just convince Ms. D_Odds, who only likes the PopCap games (Bejeweled and the like; fun, but not at the level of BG2, HL2 or CoH) and doesn’t like ferrets (she only accepted them as we were a package deal).
Paragon City, where meta-humans outnumber humans by a 50-to-1 margin. However, humans all have true invulnerability. And despite constantly setting off fireballs and novas, not to mention the amounts of radiation released, the environment is never effected.
There are 8 billion thugs of various persuasions in Perez Park, yet people still go there.
‘Heroes’ constantly zoom right by citizens in distress.
You can clear out an elaborate Council Lair, exit, reenter, and find a totally different Circle of Thorns lair.
(a) Anomen lightens up after he becomes a knight, it seems. Unfortunately, not all of his standard “response” lines are changed, and so you still get the stuff like “What is it now?!” and so forth. Bleh! My most replayed game is probably Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, another Bioware offering.
(b) But… but my husband is an adult gamer who likes ferrets too! Maybe we have to work out some kind of timeshare deal or something. He and I play CoH together, and before that, NWN. When we got the Hordes of the Underdark single player expansions, we were comparing notes on how far we’d each gotten with our respective romantic interests. 
Maus: You’d think so, wouldn’t you? Considering how infrequently those hugely tough heroes actually pay any attention to the lowbie villains, I always imagine them whistling and vainly attempting to look inconspicuous while the big hero passes by.
…
!!! :eek:
…?
… 
Holy crap. Someone else actually played AlphaMan?
I still found him nearly insufferable; wanted to kill him myself. Give me a smokin’ hot drow wench with an active libido as a cleric over him anyday. After you get through it, you should try some of the mods…new characters, new romances, new items…some are actually decent too. I still haven’t played KotOR, although it is loaded and ready to go.
I’ll have to channel my Sicilian/Sonny Corleone side to come up with a solution to this dilemna. 
As a Chicagoan, you should understand.
I like Anomen a LOT once he become a knight. Camelia rose, yes. And I think Aerie is whiny as all hell, Jaheira is an annoying bitch, and Viconia is even more of an annoying bitch. And mean to boot.
I don’t really like women, can you tell? Only specific ones!
Speaking of City of Heroes, I find it mildly amusing that the officials of Paragon City endorse all of these super heroes running around eviscerating people with katanas, setting them on fire, etc.
Well, when half the mugging victems are cops, do you think they have a choice?
Sure do, my hubby’s Italian. (Northern!)
City of Heroes again: You enter a rave party/office building/whatever that’s being assaulted by evil villains. Nearly all of the people inside are running around hysterically and will not respond if you try to talk to them. A select few will be found huddled in some corner or office somewhere, being threatened by villains. These are the only ones you need to care about evacuating from the building - leave the hysterical ones to fend for themselves. Also, you will often come upon a member of the SWAT team who is not only running around helpless as well, but will be audibly shrieking like a schoolgirl.
Back in the old Atari days, I’d drive along as fast as I pleased on any road in any weather at any time of day, passing other cars at will on either side. Smack into someone? Forget about stopping and exchanging insurance information! Both of you just keep on driving…
My favorite, though, is Civ3.
There, I run my country despotically, never giving up power for millennia, building up to a democratic government for the sole reason that it gives me the ability to command ever stronger forces in my goal of invading the territory of sovereign nations (even those of allies on occasion), commandeering their precious natural resources, and, if necessary, sometimes just for the hell of it, wiping their civilization from the face of the earth.
Actions I daresay I would take the President and/or my congresspersons to task for attempting…
If you are refered to me then no. That was my impression of Chrono from Chrono Trigger posting. Then again I’ve never played that either.
Well, I’m not at work, so let me just check the desk drawer here at home…
- A round, black mirror circumscribed with strange symbols.
- A tattered, red-stained parchment with odd diagrams and Latin verses on it.
- A small fragment of stone tablet bearing cuneiform writing.
Hmmm…just a fluke. What else is around?
In the living room, there’s a chest that contains a number of small vials of green liquid and a few small semiprecious stones under a false bottom. The top compartment contains candles and incense. In the nearest closet, there’s a wooden sword. Also a staff and a bow. Huh–looks like the thief is getting left out. No, wait, here’s a dagger in another drawer. Another chest downstairs holds lockpicks and some leather armor, so he’s all set. There’s chain mail, too, but it isn’t completed yet; it looks like the armorer ran out of metal for some reason.
Evidently, I’m a quest-initiating NPC.
When I play hockey, I can knock player after player through the glass and none of them get hurt.
And sometimes, I just walk off of cliffs because I forgot to jump.
